Hi people. For those who can't get this type of help I'll tell you what helped me. Stopped alcohol like completely, sugar too(only sugar I got was from fruits and one's I couldnt avoid in like baked beans),halfed my meat intake(completely cut out pork) started taking turmeric at night before bed so it would work in the body as I slept without interruption, up'd my water intake and also started drinking kefir. I also made a hair oil for myself which comprised of 70% pimkinseed oil, 10% pepermint oil, 10% tea tree oil and 10% hemp oil. I noticed a BIG difference In the inflammation. My scalp stoped itching completely and the tenderness + sores/bumps I had on scalp subsided. hair loss stopped too. Hair regrowth has been slow but for sure its grown a little. Its all about discipline and patience. Also very important LEAVE YOUR HAIR ALONE. I'm a black guy and I know ladies this would be harder for you to do but trust me leave it alone. Peace

According to my doctor, it stems from autoimmune issues. I have scaring, but life goes on.

I’m at a point where I’m working on lowering my estrogen and cholesterol with more organic fiber powder, fruits and vegs, drinking more dandelion tea and organic coconut water after a stressful day at work, probiotics at night with yogurt goat milk and organic coconut oil to coat my stomach, and detoxing and protecting my liver. My stomach is flatter and I’m getting baby hairs.

I have had this condition for 20 years and had no idea what it was. I got it from a relaxer and my mother has female pattern baldness. Thank you so much for this video!

I wish my hair should grow back. But I already know I'm a done deal. One day I intend to just shave all my hair off and be done with worrying about it.

I’m so glad I found this channel and clicked on your link. I’m actually in Atlanta. I just moved here my alopecia went from a quarter size to what is in this video in a week. I can only wear my hair up in high ponytail because I don’t have hair in the middle. And my ponytail is very painful. I will be making a appointment. Because I didn’t know where to start.

i knew something was wrong with me but i didnt know it had a name until today. ive been struggling with this for 10 plus years.

I just cane across this video and I believe this is what I have. Of course I have had this condition for well over 10 years. I went to countless doctors and dermatologists. Getting blood work, scalp biopsies. They determined that I had skin lupus. A few years ago I asked a specialist and he didn't think I had it.

Going natural saved my hair! My scalp is still sore in that area..like always but I don’t have hair loss there any longer. My hair is now flourishing

I permed my hair more than once, the harsh chemicals caused my hair loss and scarring. Chemicals on the scalp will affect the hair follicles, pulling hair too tight will cause the roots to loosen. Harsh treatment of hair will affect it.

This is what I was diagnosed with in 2016. Luckily I managed to grow my crown back and from 2017-2020 it did amazing but then took a turn for the worst. All of 2021 was a nightmare. By October 89% of my crown always gone. I had surgery comming so I just shaved to start over. But now growth is non exisaant. Mixture of ccca and my other autoimmune disorder I’m gonna be bald forever

1:00 Shout out to Dr Dlova from South Africa for the research!! 🇿🇦🇿🇦

There is a derm in NY whose been able to regrow hair of clients who has had CCA for years using topicals and vitamins. ..be encouraged people

THE CENTRAL, TOP, AND MIDDLE OF THE HEAD, CARRIES NERVE ENDINDS, ABD HIGH STRESS, ALONG WITH HAIR NEGLECT, POOR DIET, LACK OF NECESSARY WATER CONSUMPTION CAUSES PATTERNED BALDNESS, WHY HIGH NUMBERS IN BLACK WOMEN IS DUE TO HIGH STRESS, AND NEGLECT OF HAIR CARE, OUR HAIR IS MEANT TO BE TUCKED AND CARED IN PROTECTIVE AND LASTING HAIR STYLES, MINUS, WEAVES AND CHEMICAL TREATMENTS, ALSO GENTLE CARE ABD HANDLING OF OUR HAIR IS THE CAUSE FOR THIS, SO IS THE CONSUMPTION OF PORK AND SUGAR, CHANGE THESE SEE THE DIFFERENCE NO STEROID IR INJECTION WILL FIX THIS, IT IS A FOREIGN SUBSTANCE BEING PUT INTO YOUR BODY TO TREAT THE SYMPTOMS, NOT A CURE!! STEROID IF ANY KIND ARE HARMFUL TO THE BODY!

Thanks 🙏 I heard Alopecia is getting to be endemic among black Women. I too just got diagnosed with CCCa . I am fighting it

Should you stop getting relaxers if you are diagnosed with CCCA? My dermatologist said I could continue to get them, but try to go 8 or more weeks in between. I truly believe the relaxers have caused me to get alopecia.

I'm crying right now, because I found you, but also I live in Canada and were I am there is no black dermatologist 😥😥😥, it's really hard to be in this condition and have no answer. I went to see a dermatologist four years ago and he said this black women problem, he gave some lotions and that's all. Please help 🙏🙏🙏

These relaxes also affect our uterus and internal organs, which in turn affect everything else. Wish my aunt had known about this before she relax my hair at 11 years old

I soo have this problem but I've seen a dermatologist here in NJ and they just not interested in help to get this under control. 😫 Man, i wish i lives in Altanta, GA...😔. Well thank you for the information. God bless 🙏.

Wish I knew about you when I lived in ATL. I have this, and it runs in my family, along with male pattern baldness. Now it's already spreading outwards (thinning) and the crown is scarred.....When I went to a dermatologist 25 years ago, nothing was done.

I have this type of alopecia.. My dermatologist got me taking finasteride what they prescribed for men with prostate cancer.. He also recommended Rogaine but I refused to use it because once you stop your hair will fall out again..I really would like to know what supplements you prescribe for the inside of our body.

Male with this condition, I live in an area with low black population so support is hard. I did meet a dermatologist who's familiar with the condition and he gave me anti inflammatory steroid solution and anti biotics. We'll see how it goes its been less than a year but so far the situation has definitely improved. Will subscribe for more insight you can provide on this.

I have been researching and glad I get to understand this hair loss

I have scarring already so it’s no hope for me. I never knew what was goin on except the fact that my hair won’t grow back in certain areas.

This is when an ancestry test comes in handy. I can actually search my DNA if I know the name of the gene.

Thank you for sharing this. Was diagnosed with alopecia recently. Just dealing with a lot of pain in the center my scalp and thinning.

Wish this service was available in my area

Very interesting information! Thank you so much for sharing and educating us!

Get some minerals and get on a plant based diet and you’ll see great results 🤩

They need to come out with a product that can hold moister for maybe a week or two..since the black woman's hair especially, needs stimulation for growth, pores open for breathing as well as absorbing, which water and hair food oils help lock the hair follicles, when twisted or braided from the scalp prevents dryness. Brushing is a plus for grooming new growth

Braidless extensions and microlink extensions are interesting. What about wigs as well? Wigs that have no combs and no adhesives and come off at night? Are those ok?

I've done a video on my hair falling out; I guess this is why I got the recommendation. My dermatologist suggested I stop putting perms in my hair years ago when all of my hair was falling out. I was diagnosed with "Traction Alopecia" & "Seborrheic Dermatitis". Going natural helped me. I was chosen to be in a few events after my hair grew back. One day I was chosen to be a Black Panther in the movie "Forest Gump". At the time....they wanted someone who could wear a real Afro. It was a blessing I had just stopped wearing those perms. My hair grew back nice. Nowadays I watch my diet, whatever I feed my body, I'm feeding my mind, my hair, actually my entire body. I move, exercise no less than 20 minutes a day to get that blood circulation flowing. I get some sun, take my vitamins, I drink water, collagen, meditation, sleep, eat lots of fruits and veggies. I lean my head out the side of my bed some mornings slowly to get that blood flowing to my scalp. Sounds strange, but it works for me. Now that I'm older I have the patience to do all these things. I remember a time where I did not wrap my hair. I also remember when I use to eat a lot of pizza and hamburgers, I drank Kool-Aid, lots of sweet cake, pies, sodas, ate a lot of cheese, milk. My skin and hair was jacked up. Everything seemed to flare up on my body. I've come a long way. Ooohwee. I still have to be mindful of my lifestyle; when I stop exercising or indulge in certain foods; I see it in my skin and hair immediately. On my body.... this traction alopecia it's like a cold. It will reveal itself after all those years. This was back in 89/90 when I was in that dermatologist chair. I didn't want to hear the truth about letting go of that perm, or even my diet. SMH. It took me years to get it. I have to switch up on things sometimes vitamins etc. It just depends. Everyone is different, but basically almost the same. The pain is real. I try not to stress about it . Be Hopeful everyone. Takes time and patience along with great Dr's like Dr. Ross here to help us. 🙏🏾 Nice video and thank you Dr. Ross for sharing.

Wow I’ve been dealing with this for 16 years wearing wigs and lace fronts cause I have no hair from my crown to the top of my head and my edges

Real Basic to stop this hair issue is stop self dissatisfaction and embrace your natural being,hair is included...Respect Love self

Thanks for the positive feedback.

Struggling with hair loss, hair is sooo thin it's almost as if its not there in the crown area, my edges are okay though but biggest issue currently is the scalp inflammation, i get these bumps with puss and they painful. How do i get my scalp to stop hurting and the bumps to go away?

Should you stop getting relaxers or get relaxers with no lye

I'm White and suffered from this.

I lost hair in my crown and my hairline. This was when I was 31. In the middle of my crown would itch and tingle. The hair was coming out. Eventually the hairs grew back but I lost hair and I have a bald spot in the middle of my head. I went to a dermatologist (white doc) he diagnosed me with alopecia areata. Now as I am typing this coming from another dermatologist office (the doc is black Female) she diagnosed me with CCCA. So I don’t think my hair will Grow back. She prescribed an oil that I have to use for the rest of my life so it doesn’t spread. Is there no hope? I don’t relax my hair. She said to stay away from the hair dryer and tight styles . Can you help Me?

I see that you are in atlanta. I asked the question before watching the entire video.

Wow....I am utterly lost for words to how professional the process is. I so wish I lived in ATL. I'm in NC and in need of help for my ccca before it's too late. Any suggestions on how to connect with you?

women need to have a relationship and get to know whats good for their hair, because all hair types are not the same. Shea butter, coca butter, i mean moisters that came from africa

Wish you were in Chicago. I just scheduled a consultation and analysis with a Trichologist and it’s cost $50. Thanks for the informative video. I don’t think my hair is gonna grow long again unfortunately 🙁 I wish I had the length of hair like the woman in the video.

Thank you for posting this video. I which we had these services in my area in Toronto, Canada. Been diagnosed with CCCA but all the Doc wants to do is write a cortisone-based prescription for the itching...which can thin your skin.

I would love to know if you did virtual consultations. I would love to try your services but before I venture to ATL, i'd like to know if you could help.

how do i grow my hair again after having the CCCA

Good information thanks for the video 🐱

Hi, my daughter is six years old and I think she does have alopecia. I have never put any form chemicals in her hair.

Many of us see hair loss on our edges mostly in front how can we fix this?

For the customized treatment plans, what about the injections? Are they not as important?

Any recommendations for dermatologist in Colorado???! I saw one here and she had no clue about black hair.

First: great video!! Thank you for meeting a huge need!! Second; are there natural methods you recommend to help with this condition, i.e eating certain foods, identifying vitamin deficiencies, home care, etc?? Thanks again!!😄❤
